Will Celtics be able to record a victory over the Hornets on January 20? The answer is in our prediction.

Command Analysis

Boston Celtics

Boston managed to get out of crisis. Ime Udoka's men won 4 out of 5 most recent matches and returned to the 10th spot in the Eastern Conference. Among others, team managed to beat Chicago (114:112) and New Orleans (104:92).

Overall, Celtics managed to improve their defensive performance. Seems like Udoka's job is starting to pay off. Celtics managed to keep Indiana and New Orleans under 100 points in matches against these teams. Probably Celtics' defense will help them to advance into the playoffs.

Charlotte Hornets

Charlotte are in a slightly better situation. James Borrego's men are still at the 7th spot in the East and are fighting for a play-off spot. In the most recent match Hornets recorded an away victory over Knicks (97:87). But before that they suffered an unexpected defeat to Orlando (109:116).

We should note that LaMelo Ball will probably miss the match against Boston. He has some difficulties with COVID-19, it is uncertain, whether he is eligible to play or not.

Tip and bets

TipHandicap (+6,5) for Charlotte

1.72

Boston are clear favourites for this match, but Charlotte looked great in recent matches. Borrego's men managed to put up a fight against Milwaukee and also recorded a victory over Philadelphia. We are not expecting an easy victory from Boston. Hornets will try to put up a fight.

Our prediction - Handicap (+6,5) points for Charlotte

Will the prediction win?

TipTotal over 216,5 points

1.75

In recent matches Boston put up a great defensive performance, but Charlotte are a much stronger opponent. Borrego's men are too weak under their own rim. They concede way too many points. In this case, we are expecting a high-scoring game.

Our second bet is on total over 216,5 points
